Lyrics
You say, hey let's be proactive
Give a heads-up so we can touch base
Just send an email and memo and a fax to my voicemail
Have me paged, I'll get the message
Well, I'd like to go over those plans from October
For the budget for November for the party in December
But maybe, we should just take a spin on the links instead
Ha
Well I'd like to cut you open to see if your blood runs warm or cold
I'd like to roll up your sleeves to see if you're covered in skin or scales
Well I'd like to take you to a big old Greenpeace meeting and watch your face
Turn white and ashen when the seminar leader says now repeat after me
Save the Whales
Save the Whales
All that I want is just a piece of the action
A slice of pie that's cut to my satisfaction
A tiny spark to start the big chain reaction
What do you say, Mr. Bigshot
What do you say? What do you say? Is that all
Why don't you take it? Why don't you stick it up
Your secretary says you're indisposed, but I know the real story
You're having a good time with that little sheep in the back room
She has such a friendly face it man you're a sick bastard
And that's how you got to be right where you are
So you can make sick bastard stuff to go the fools
Well give me some. Loan me some. Trade me some. Sell me some
I've got to have some no matter what the cost
Make no mistake I'd hawk it too
If I could sit and sip latte like you
With an air of nonchalance
That says I could kill you with my thumb, you punk
You punk
All that I want is just a piece of the action
A slice of pie that's cut to my satisfaction
A tiny spark to start the big chain reaction
Well, what do you say, Mr. Bigshot
What do you say, Mr. Bigshot
What do you say
What do you say
What do you say
You're so big
You're so big
You're so big
You're so big
You're so big
You're so big
You're so big
You're so
So big
All that I want is just a piece of the action
A slice of pie that's cut to my satisfaction
A tiny spark to start the big chain reaction
Well, what do you say, Mr. Bigshot
All that I want is just a piece of the action
A slice of pie that's cut to my satisfaction
A tiny spark to start the big chain reaction
Well, what do you say, Mr. Bigshot
What do you say, Mr. Bigshot
Well what do you say
Well what do you say
Well what do you say
Well, what do you say, Mr. Bigshot
